Same guy who later admitted to drowning him, had ordered truckloads to be driven away from Brian's farm on the night after he was killed.
So, first he killed him, then he robbed him. Just because they didn't agree on some invoices he had sent Brian for carpenter work he'd done there...
Have you got a source for that? I find that statement odd when thinking about Brian's love for sounds and exotic instruments. He most likely recorded stuff in the music room (since everybody who knew him at that time states that) and being who he was he would love to have add dulcimer, sitar and other stuff to that. According to Keylock his Mellotron was at Cotchford and it's said to have been transported to his parents after his death.Quote

It appears that most instruments associated with Brian were not with him in his house.

Interesting thread...correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to rememeber reading that Thoroughgood made a death bed confession to someone and admitted it was him who had held Brian under the water. I'm 95% certain that this was in some article but, as has been stated above, it's more than likely the truth will never emerge as there was only one other person who Thoroughgood confessed to and he could say anything as Thoroughgood isn't around to contest it. It's just another brilliant conspiracy theory a la' JFK.
My personal feelings is it's a mixture of two incidents, Brian got into trouble in the water (asthma, drugs, booze who knows) and THoroughgood didn't help and then decided to jump in and try and get him out but it was too late. So, strictly not murder although very close.

After Brian's dead Keylock was at least still very present at the Hyde Park gig!
So when exactly did they fire him and how - if at all?
In the book Good times Bad times - co written by Rawlings/ Badman - and some Keylock, - he says his last work for the Stones was to fly to NY to face Klein to get some money for Keith.
After that HE says he left them cause he needed a break.
Well . . !?!

Interesting that in another thread Anita (in an interview) aserts that Brian was probably murdered.
She must be the closest to the "inner circle" of the time, to admit as much.
Re the possessions: the family-who would presumably have inherited all his stuff- have remained quiet ( a dignified silence it has to be said).
